Reflection

I really like: Reading lots and lots of books.

I think I need to practice: Reading chapter books.Charlotte, during read to self you make sure you have enough books so you can read the whole time and you focus on your book. Remember to make sure you find a place to read that is going to help your learning and to get started straight away.Kerri

We are learning to build our confidence in and around the water. We practise our swimming skills and love to show off our new tricks.

This is what I have been practising:

Reflection:

I am really proud of: Picking stuff up from the bottom.

It is tricky when: I do starfish on my back.

The next thing I want to learn is: Rocket arms on my back.Charlotte, you enter the pool safely and are very confident in the water. I love all the tricks you show me and how you work with other kids to make 'super' tricks. You have been working hard to float on your back. Remember to keep pushing your tummy up to the sky when you are on your back, this will help with rocket arms and floating on your back.Kerri
